How to scroll through several image thumbnails in my Vb app?

[WarrenW]

My program has anywhere from 10 to 100 or more image files in JPG format and I want to create a window of thumbnails for each image and elt the user scroll through them and click on one to view in normal size. What is the best method to do this?

I thought of using the webbrowser control and creating the html code in my vb app to display. Then for each image link, just use java script for a popup window to show the image as normal. Is this the best method? Can all systems with IE 5 and up support a java script for a popup window?

Thanks!!

There is a control called the ImageList control.
That will store any number of pictures (there's probably some limit) in your app.

Make a line of say 10 image controls (set the .Stretch property = True and the picture will shrink/grow to fit it), and set their picture to: ImageList.ListImages.Picture(0) or whatever value it is (I forget the syntax for that control)

You could access the imagelist from n to n + 10, or whatever is appropriate, and then as a user clicks a left/right button, change those values as you need.

Then when they click a box, load the picture into a main picture box.
